Testimonial
"City Island in the Bronx is a fragile community targeted by eager developers as well as by hurricanes. But thanks to the effective and tireless efforts of Lookout Hill, we were able to reduce the latest threat by preventing the construction of a building whose size and density would have overwhelmed our historic, small-town character."
Barbara Dolensek
Vice President
City Island Civic Association
